Galileo used inclines similar to the one shown below to measure the

distance balls of various weights would travel in equal time intervals. The conclusions that Galileo reached from these experiments were contrary to the prevailing Aristotelian theories on the subject, and he lost his post at the University of Pisa because of them.

An experiment with an incline and three balls produced the following results. The three balls are each the same size; however, ball A has a mass of 20 grams, ball B has a mass of 40 grams, and ball C has a mass of 80 grams.

Time, in secondsDistance traveled, in inchesBall A (20 grams)Ball B (40 grams)Ball C (80 grams)1666224242435454544969696

Use the above table and inductive reasoning to answer the question.
How far will one of the balls travel in 1.5 seconds?
